Had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and well stocked. Location was also very good to go to the beach or the other sites around Muskegon. My granddaughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the game room and the outside frisbee golf.

This was a very nice stay for our family. The game room was nice for kids who got up early because it was on the other side of the house so didn’t wake up others. Close to everything we wanted to do. And very well furnished especially the kitchen!

Excellent visit. Property checked all the right boxes. Dogs loved the backyard. They barked a bit over the squirrels but that’s just what dogs do. Rooms were all comfortable. The labeling on all areas throughout the home was very helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again when visiting the area.

Beautiful home for our first VRBO trip!

We booked this home because of the location and the fact that it was pet friendly, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience! The house was SUPER clean, the manager had everything so well organized, the location was very convenient, we wished we could have stayed longer!

Quiet neighborhood, close to beach

The property is within walking distance to Muskegon Lake and the quaint business district of Lakeside. Pere Marquette beach is fabulous, and only a 5 minute drive away. We had a fantastic stay, and our host, Brenda, is top notch. The home is tastefully renovated, and the large fenced yard is perfect for your furry best friend.

Lovely stay

They thought of everything that a family would need. The outdoor patio and fenced in back yard was great for our children to run around. The close proximity to Pere Marquette beach was nice too. There's a bike trail but with children you're better off driving since it's a little less than 2 miles away.
